You are given s(t) where s(t) represents the position in meters of an object at time t in hours. a) what does the slope of the secant line on the interval [1,3] represent? b) what does the slope of the tangent line at the point t=2 represent? c) for what type of function other than a constant are parts a and b always equal?

(a)the slope of the secant line on the interval [1,3] represents the average velocity of the object  over that interval.the definition of average velocity is    where  is the displacement of the object over that time interval.(b)the slope of the tangent line at the point t = 2 represents the instantaneous velocity of the object at t = 2 (2 hours after the start time).  if the object had a speedometer, and you snapped a picture of it at t = 2 hours, then that would be the instantaneous  velocity of that object.(c)a linear function has parts (a) and (b) equal. graphically, a linear function is a straight line.a linear function has a constant slope, a constant rate of change. the tangent line slope would be the same as the secant line slope.

Aye i really don’t know this but i need more point so i am guessing it’s c. 2.0or you can use other apps to you get the answer
